A Band Apart
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Band Apart was a production company created by a number of famous and acclaimed movie directors. Its name is a play on the French New Wave classic, Bande à part ("Band of Outsiders") by filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard, whose work was highly influential on the work of the company's members. The company's logo is a stylized image of the robbers from Reservoir Dogs, the debut film of A Band Apart member Quentin Tarantino.
Members include Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez, John Woo, Tim Burton, Steve Buscemi and John Landis. Producer Lawrence Bender was a co-founder of the company and currently owns and runs the business.
